December 7th
As I sat at the computer this morning, the History channel was playing a documentory about Pearl Harbor. When I looked at the clock, it occured to me that it was exactly 67 years ago that another group of our young men and women stepped forward to defend this country. Those young people and our government stayed the course until the job was done.
9/11 was our next Pearl harbor, and once again, another generation of our young people have stepped forward to do the same. I pray daily for their safety and that once again we show the fortitude to stay the course.
As we remember our young men and women today, let us not forget the young men and women of 67 years ago, and all those who have served faithfully over the years.
Thanks to all of you who served.
